Patent CA-2621899-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TOEMMERASS KRISTOFFER
IPC: A61K8/11
Filed: 2006-09-26
Abstract: The present invention relates to the modification of hyaluronic acid (HA) with aryl/alkyl succinic anhydrides (ASA) to produce aryl/alkyl succinic anhydride HA derivatives, to the derivatives as such, and to their applications and uses, particularly in the cosmetic and biomedical industries. The ASA-HA  derivatives are expected to have interesting properties that can be used for advanced formulation (bind stronger to the skin compared to non-modified HA), possibly also in delivery systems for actives or drugs by encapsulation (nano/micro capsules) or formation of nano/micro spheres. Further, the low MW  ASA-HA derivatives are expected to penetrate the skin more efficiently than non-modified HA of the same MW.

Title: A debris collection device for collecting debris with limited dispersion of airborne particles
Inventor: STRAUSER DANIEL P
IPC: E01H1/08
Filed: 2003-02-13
Abstract: The invention provides debris collection devices that include a debris contacting mechanism, a debris transport mechanism that is configured to receive debris moved by the debris contacting mechanism at an inlet and move such debris towards a debris storage compartment, and a filter and vacuum assembly. The filter and vacuum assembly includes an inlet disposed downstream of the inlet of the transport mechanism and upstream of the debris storage compartment, relative to the path of transported debris.
